Profhilo Structura
About the treatment
What is Profhilo® Structura?
Profhilo® Structura is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to deliver a fresh, youthful glow with non-invasive precision.
This enhanced version of traditional Profhilo® targets superficial fat cells with the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid available, promoting deeper skin remodeling and hydration. Its innovative formula stimulates dormant fat cells to reactivate, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. The result is visibly lifted skin, improved contour, and reduced heaviness.
Ideal for those seeking a volumising effect without traditional fillers, Profhilo® Structura smooths fine lines and restores natural radiance, making it particularly beneficial for addressing signs of aging such as facial sagging and sinking.
Profhilo Structura is a quick, minimally invasive treatment. During the 10-minute procedure, a hyaluronic acid-based gel is injected into key areas of the face using a cannula, which minimises bruising and discomfort. The treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, restoring volume and improving skin elasticity with minimal downtime.
Profhilo® Structura uses a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your skin. Unlike traditional fillers, it targets the superficial fat layers of the face to stimulate collagen and elastin production. This enhances skin hydration, elasticity, and overall quality, addressing signs of aging like volume loss and sagging. Scientific studies have shown that Profhilo® Structura significantly boosts skin firmness and elasticity, with effects lasting up to six months.
Most clients require an initial course of two treatments, spaced four weeks apart. Depending on your skin's condition and desired results, maintenance treatments may be recommended every 4-6 months.
You may notice an improvement in skin hydration and texture within a few days. More significant results, such as increased firmness and elasticity, typically become visible within four weeks, with continued improvement over the following months.
Profhilo® Structura is generally well-tolerated, with minimal side effects. Some clients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites, which usually subsides within a few hours to a few days.
Profhilo® Structura is not advised if you:
- are pregnant or breastfeeding
- are allergic to hyaluronic acid
- have an active infection on the area of treatment
- have keloid scarring on the area of treatment
- have had any major dental work within three weeks prior to treatment
- are planning a long-haul flight within one week of treatment.
Profhilo® Structura is different from traditional dermal fillers in that it does not add volume to specific areas. Instead, it spreads evenly throughout the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. This results in overall skin improvement, enhancing hydration, elasticity, and firmness, rather than just filling lines or adding volume to targeted areas.
Yes, Profhilo® Structura can be safely combined with other cosmetic treatments such as Botox®, dermal fillers, and skin resurfacing procedures. However, it is recommended to wait at least two weeks before and after your Profhilo® Structura treatment when planning to combine it with other treatments.
